Brill thank you!I'm using the nuface branded one because it came with the device but I wash it off straight after so I do not plan on replacing it when I'm out! I've just ordered this to try: Amazon productbut any ultrasound gel should allow the microcurrent to get through (and loads of people say normal aloe vera gel works too but I'd rather be sure it's working)
edit: I don't think my amazon link has worked. it's anagel ultrasound gel, £3.95 for 250ml

I'd have thought so as long as you don't actually get any in your eyes. I've not been bothering with the serum that came with the fix as a) the tube is tiny and b) it stings a bit - I've overdone the tret recently and my eyelids are a bit raw so I've been using the normal nuface stuff and was planning on just using this everywhere then washing it off as I am with that. I do my eyes last though so whatever I'm using isn't on there as long as the rest of my face. The website says it's " non-sensitizing and non-irritating "Thanks for the amazon link
Do you think this will be ok to use round the eyes? I noticed the fix came with a different serum to the mini
Here's hoping it works!Went to aldi and it was staring at me so got it and just ordered the gel from amazon
I'd be careful around the eyes. I can use the nuface gel near my eyes no problem, but a cheap conductor gel I got from amazon stings my eyes like crazy if it get any higher than my cheekbone. I don't know whether it's got menthol or anything in it but it doesn't agree with me. It's bad enough for me to consider only ever getting the nuface one once I've used it up and its more than 3 times the priceThanks for the amazon link

This is interesting to hear, I’ll be wary when mine arrives. I guess I could use the cheap stuff for the bulk of my face and the rest of the nuface gel around the eyesI'd be careful around the eyes.

That's a good idea. I hadn't thought of that, just persevered!This is interesting to hear, I’ll be wary when mine arrives. I guess I could use the cheap stuff for the bulk of my face and the rest of the nuface gel around the eyes
I’m not just an electrocuted face!That's a good idea. I hadn't thought of that, just persevered!
I ordered one tonight…really hoping it’s goodWent to aldi and it was staring at me so got it and just ordered the gel from amazon
I was thinking of buying this one. You must be the one star Nuface review on there
I have the same problem and although I don’t particularly like the Nuface gel as it contains hyaluronic acid, it’s the only one that doesn’t sting my eyes so sticking with it. Hot’n’flashy has a good tip for using it sparingly- she applies it on the side of the face she’s using the device on with a make up brush and only applies on the other side when ready to move onto it.I'd be careful around the eyes.

Lol I haven't left a review but I should do to warn people. I can't be the only special snowflake with sensitive eyes! I clearly didn't read the reviews when I ordered it!I was thinking of buying this one. You must be the one star Nuface review on there
Yes I watched her demos.shes got some good tips. Forgot she used a brush though. I have seen others use a water spray to reactivate it but that didn't work for me.

Surely a makeup brush actually means you use more product as it’s soaked into the bristles? Might go on smoother but not with less productI have the same problem and although I don’t particularly like the Nuface gel as it contains hyaluronic acid, it’s the only one that doesn’t sting my eyes so sticking with it.

If you use a synthetic one, that won’t be a problem.Surely a makeup brush actually means you use more product as it’s soaked into the bristles? Might go on smoother but not with less product
It will still use more product than just smoothing it on with hands, though? What a strange hill to die on.If you use a synthetic one, that won’t be a problem.
If you're using the Nuface primer, a lot of product stays on your hands as its so gloopy, I reckon a brush is probably less wasteful. I've switched to Banana Boat Aloe vera gel now anyway - it's much cheaper and seems to be doing the job. I read somewhere that a lot of people like the organic aloe vera from Holland and Barrett but I found that it slid off my face and made a mess everywhere. If money were no object, I'd keep buying the Nuface stuff but I'd rather save the cash and put it towards my next device.It will still use more product than just smoothing it on with hands, though?
